Binghamton Rumble Ponies News Release
AKRON, OH - The Binghamton Rumble Ponies ended the first half of the regular season falling to the Akron RubberDucks 5-3 on Sunday Afternoon at Canal Park. Binghamton finishes the first half at 35-34. The Rumble Ponies took four of the seven games in the series.
Akron (35-34) scored all five of their runs in the second inning against Landon Marceaux (0-1), who was making his New York Mets organizational debut after being acquired in a trade with the Angels Friday night.
The RubberDucks runs came courtesy of an Aaron Bracho RBI single, Michael Berglund two-run double, and Jose Tena two-run single.
Binghamton would get on the board against RHP Tommy Mace in the sixth inning on a Jose Peroza RBI single. In the seventh, Branden Fryman's two-run double cut the deficit to 5-3. Mace though would retire the next seven batters to close out the game and earn the save.
Mace was pitching in relief of Cleveland Guardians RHP Cal Quantrill, who was making a rehab start with Akron. Quantrill allowed three hits over five scoreless frames.
